Masonic Insurance.

TO the Edltor or the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Please allow me short space in your pub lication in reply to an article headed "Ma- sonic Insurance'' in Wednesdays issue, re- ferriDg to that portion which says, "while some similar benefit associations heresbouts have decreased over one hundred and fifty members during the past two years," etc.
 If this sweeping statement has the shadow of reference to the Northwestern Masonic Aid association" then the managers of the Masonic Protective society,"" so styled, ought to feel ashamed in view of the fact that over one hundred and fifty members of the Masonic fraternity in New Haven have joined the Northwestern" within the past fifteen months, and has been thorouQhly in- vestigated by hundreds of them to whom we refer, and respectfully represent without fear of contradiction that there is not in all this broad land another mutual benefit associa- tion that can show more satisfactory result for fourteen years' operation than the Northwestern Masonic Aid association" of Chicago, which fact forty thousand Masons in the United States insured in this associa- tion will testify to. Respectfully,
 B. s. HILL, general solicitor for Connecti- cut, 157 St. John street

A Strong and A minated Market-Prices on the Advance Throughout Under the Lead of the Vanderbilts.

Stocks opened generally heavy on the offerings by traders and from 1s to s per cent lower Trad ing was dull, but soon became more animated and the market was firm to strong from the opening. Jersey Central Missouri Pacific, New England, Reading and Richmond West Point were strong at this time. The market quieted down later when Jersey Central made further gain. There were few slight declines in the afternoon, but the list crept slowly up and the Vanderbilts assumed the lead. There was no further change in the market; the close quiet strong at the best prices of the day. Railroad bonds not only more active, but much stronger throughout.

The Day of Atonement,

At the Court street synagogue yesterday morning at 9:30 Rev. Dr. Kleeberg delivered an eloquent sermon. In the course of his remarks he spoke of the change since the times of the ancient Hebrews from the cere- monial and sacrifcial exercises, which were typical, to the observance of the law as it is done to-day. Turning to the industrial question Dr. Kleeberg said that much of the strife now going on between employed and employer might be obviated if the old bibli- cal injunction was followed out of paying every man what he earned each day at the setting of the sun. He deprecated the neg lect of the moral and physical well being of employees by their employers. Proper care for others and interest in their welfare would produce golden results. Prayers fol- lowed the sermon. The services of the day were particularly solemn and impressive.

Peets also testi- fled that the accused was in poor health. Commissioner Platt thought that the negi- gence was not due to maliciousness and dis charged Andrews on account of sickness al the time of the trouble.

Special to the Gazette.
FORT SMITH, ARK, May ia horrible
case of incest was developed here to-day.
On Thursday night last the wife of Will
liam j. Coates died leaving three
children, child. aged ten years and two
small boys. Coates is a worthless vaga-
bond and his wife's death is attributed in
q measure to i'll treatment and hard
living. Last night about 9 O'Clock the
people living in the same tenement house
with Coates heard his little girl crying,
groaning and struggling i, and they knocked
at the door and asked what was the mat
ter. Coates refused to admit them when
they broke window open with Ratchet
and took the girl. On being quoted she
told what her father had been do
ing and they Immediately sent for an
officer, but when he came the inhu-
man father had escaped through win
dow. He was soon captured, however, and
lodged in jail. To-day he was examined
and bound over to court. a medical ex-
animation of the child showed that the
brute had been guilty of the horrible
crime of incest more than once, and
when asked on the witness stand she
stated that he had begun the beastly
work before her mother died, and that
this was the afth time he had assaulted
her. The people who live in
the house substantiated this by
circumstantial testimony. They said
every word she said was true. Coates is
in jail and lynching is freely discussed on
the streets. The examination had to be
conduc;e ed with closed doors, to keep out
the large crowd around the building who
desired to see the monster in human shape.
Coates is about forty-six years old.
Deputy United States Marshal John
Curtis arrived here this afternoon with
Charley Bobtail, a Cherokee, charged
with being implicated in the recent MUIR
der of Deputy United States Marshal
Dan Naples, at Tahlequah. Charley
is not unknown to United States court
officials here by any means. On the 18th
of July, 1884, he was sentenced to
eighteen months imprisonment at
Detroit, Mich, for introducing and sell
ing whisky in the Indian Territory.
Serving out his term he returned to his
home in the Cherokee Nation, and
on the 23d of April, 1886, was
again lodged in jail here for
horse-stealipg, for which offense he
was on Mag 20, 1880, sent to Detroit for
one year, the limit of law in larceny
cases. For good behavior in prison he
got three months of and was released
March 81, 1887, returning at once to his
old haunts in the Territory. This time
he will not get off so easy, as the evil
dence against him in the Naples case is
very strong. He does not deny being
with the party who did the killing, but
says John Parish did all the shooting.
There are writs for four others besides
Bobtail Parish being one of them.
